Time to Balance with Nature

IMG_0262Both The Byrd’s and the Bible tell us there is a time to be born, a time to die, a time to weep, a time to laugh, a time to dance — a time for every purpose under the sun. When the musical group The Byrd’s released their song Turn, Turn, Turn in 1965 they made it easy to sing along to this verse from Ecclesiastes. Even set to music, these simple, yet profound, words remind us of one core teaching: Life on Earth constantly changes.

Staying connected to Earth’s changing rhythmic motion and fundamental principles can help us live in greater harmony with the world around us and in turn, develop increased inner wisdom, balance, and peace.

Everywhere we go, from the gym to the local restaurant, television sets with programs turned on bombard us. Computers bring an overload of information from the Internet and e-mail 24-7, and people can call our cell phones or text us anywhere and at anytime.

But when we saw it pouring into the cul de sac now that was something to get alarmed about. We noticed this around noon and walked down to take a look. By 1pm it was rising so fast we decided we needed to get our computers and get out as there were many roads closing.

Mother Earth provides you with a wonderful example of the capacity to produce abundant supplies. By showing you her rich harvests and lush landscapes, she constantly teaches you about the availability of abundance and shows you that fertility abounds in every realm.

Abundance often comes from a state of heart and mind alignment, through which you see the potential, the fullness available in each moment of life. Fertility can be found in ideas for new creations, sudden awareness’s or perceptions, and in your rich spiritual gifts.

Mother Earth also teaches you to create sustainable systems in all areas of life. You can learn to live in harmony with her and to replenish what you consume, thus ensuring that other people and other times will also experience abundance and fertility.
